During the pandemic, the most-affected have been the local shops where customers are few and far between. Florian Hurel, make-up and hairstylist who has been working in the Indian entertainment industry, says, “Recently I went to my regular barber shop and the shop was deserted. I got extremely sad to see that.” He adds, “I think we should all help and encourage them. These people have families to take care of and they are in pain. Nowadays, people hardly visit local shops. I think it is our duty to help them survive.”

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
